$220 for a DAMN car Cover????

That is F*$#@ing insane. I was just consider buying a cover to leave it in my new apartment's parking garage and I called the dealer and said it was $220, is this right? If so, I know that it can't be worth it? Does anyone know where I can get a similar car cover for um a lot less? What the hell is this thing made of for those who have one, silk?

Screw the dealer's car cover. I was looking for one too, so I went to Pep Boys and picked up a very good one for around 50 bucks. Works fine. Also, I think any car parts store should carry car covers.

Is it worth $200? Yes. The dealer cover is Kimberly Clark Evolutio 4.

On my 1st gen 3.0 CL-P (97), I had a cover from day one and had so few dings I couldn't believe it - after 4 years.

I'd get one for my new ride, but I garage at work and at home!

Go to AH Motor - they have genuine Acura parts for much less than the dealer charges.
The car cover is here and is only $175.20 plus shipping/tax and whatnot. This should be the same cover the dealer sells.
I've read posts from a few members on the forum that say they've had positive experiences with AHMotor, though I've never ordered from them myself.
Hope it helps!

I have also ordered from AH Motor previously and the experience was great.

Very fast shipment and no problems whatsoever.

I would recommend them.

I purchased the factory bra from ahmotors and found them to be reasonably priced and very professional.
